Core: Re-write frame limiter

Now based on std::chrono, and also works in terms of emulated time
instead of frames, so we can in the future frame-limit even when the
display is disabled, etc.

The frame limiter can also be enabled along with v-sync now, which
should be useful for those with displays running at more than 60 Hz.
